Correspondence of the Gazette.
ALBANY, TEX, April l5.-Last night
the rafn-clouds dispensed bountiful sup
ply of water over the prairies, fields and
pastures, and as natural sequence, the
long-drawn faces and woeful gait of our
people has given place to sunny smiles
and buOyant steps.
A few more weeks of drOuth and North
west Texas would indeed have been a
field of desolation. Not only would the
farmer have attended the funeral of his
last hopes, but the cattlemen, who, dur
ing the past two or three months. have
watched their herds slowly
but surely decimated, would
have had reasons to fear that
they, too, would have been called on to
weld to the inevitable. To what great
loss our people have suffered no one but
! those who have travelled over the long
stretch of country west from Fort Worth
to the Staked Plains and watched the
great clouds of dust whiTling over the
plowed fields where the farmers had for
weeks labOred to prepare and plant for
the growing impetus OF the rains that
came not, can never know. But the rains
have come, and though too late to revive
the wheat upon which the hopes of many
were conferred last fall, it is ample time,
with q reasonable season to follow, to
make cotton, corn, sorghum, millet and
othe products to supply the long-depleted
barns and storehouses of the northwest.
Let US hope that in the revival of bust
ness interests, the merchants of Fort
Worth and Dallas will gather the reward
of their generosity in an increased trade,
and that our people will profit by the les
sons of patience and economy that neces-
sity has taught them, and may the golden
future have no more drouths to awaken
the sympathy of the charitable or invoke
tn criticisms of the incredulous.

a few years ago a western Congressman

to witness the performance of the
daughter Of the Regiment The
western official was 8 large man. over six
feet tall, who mad been q brave soldier in
the war. He followed the scenes in the
play with wrapt interest, growing more
and more excited. In the scene where
the soldier, seated on his GOTTA, is about
to be shot and the Daughter rushes for
ward and receives the yolIey intended
for her lover, the Congressman could not
control himself. He sprang no, trem
bling with excitement, and, with tears II
his eyes, exclaimed: on it, Isay. it's
too bad!"
One of the party with ntm, who has
since come into the Senate, quickly

When he was fairly settled,
